We are greeted by front of house at the dining room. Everybody is dressed exquisitely smart and even the walls glitter and gleam.

There's a small live orchestral band and a pianist. Their music fills the room and I smile up at Jay. He looks down at me and squeezes my hand lightly. We're seated on a table close to the band, the waiter pulls my chair out for me and I smile and take a seat.

The tablecloths are linen white and they're several sets of cutlery. Jay passes me the menu first and I peruse it noticing that there are dishes on it that I've never even come across. And I cook myself.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAuZI3n6uID1
"Okay for starters, can I eat oyster?" I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAOfZ30Cc6NS
"Of course so long as they are cooked" he smiles.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAY7p44J2g73
"No raw fish" I say smiling and then go on to eye up the mains.
78Please respect copyright.PENANA09X1EKyvow
"I'll join you with oysters actually" he smiles.
78Please respect copyright.PENANABOv6zixgTn
"Jay they have steak" I smile looking up at him.
78Please respect copyright.PENANA3DyYPDTtD1
"They do huh?" He smiles.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAIPRXP7Hxms
"Mhmm" I say looking at the pasta.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAnpR71o5FJG
"Truffle pasta is a temptation that I cannot resist" I say handing him the menu.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAmTjPscbLDB
I watch him look over the menu, he's so confident and self assured. He takes one look and then sets the menu back down. The waiter promptly comes over to our table.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAXHvpGpZBEf
"May I take your starters?" He asks
78Please respect copyright.PENANAJO9LEZwGhU
"Two oysters" Jay says and then proceeds to order a whiskey for himself. He motions for me to order my drink.
78Please respect copyright.PENANANl9U3gWGP2
"May I have a virgin pina colada" I say.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAhzTFbofKsH
"Certainly" the waiter says and promptly goes to get our drinks.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAd7I7gcPLGk
Jay lounges back exuding confidence. I marvel at him. The way he is always just himself. I suppose that he is used to places such as this; he grew up with wealth and privilege. It doesn't phase him, he could be chilling in his local pizza place for all he cares. Me however, I did not grow up eating out in places such as these, so whilst he is lounging and relaxing I am looking around the room like I'm in a museum. I always make a point of noticing the art in places.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAaT9fkY3df6
There are huge paintings, the kind that are in gilded frames. I suppose they are originals, and I'm staggered by the amount of fine art there is in this hall.
78Please respect copyright.PENANANXL2WR9BvZ
Jay catches my eye looking at a painting that looks as though it's in the style of Claude Monet. It's romantic and beautiful, the colours melting into one another.
78Please respect copyright.PENANA9o6srijf4F
"We should go to a museum, the musee de l'orangerie in Paris has some originals" he says softly.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAW0Jad4aZAk
"Oh you're going to have to say more French sounding things" I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAntcpxKZedd
"Why?" He chuckles
78Please respect copyright.PENANAlR0mk15uib
"It was incredibly sexy" I smile keeping his eye contact.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAcgr65fnfVD
"I can speak French" he laughs.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAm22nKLoWgR
"You can speak French?! Fluently?" I say laughing.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAbYSPOcNfAm
"Why is that such a shock to you, I'm not a total Neanderthal." He teases.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAT3jp3Ty3BA
"Prove it" I smile.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAcryw0Ess2X
"Taylor, vous êtes si belle. je vais te faire l'amour toute la nuit" he says softly his eyes watching mine. I melt in my seat.
78Please respect copyright.PENANACqnQgkGUwn
"Oh I have no idea what you said, but I agree wholeheartedly because that was super hot" I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAl2CriNat1P
"il fera super chaud" he laughs.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAyP97UOj7ff
"What did you say" I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAvWk3ohJcw4
"Taylor you are so beautiful I am going to make love to you all night long" he smiles.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAyry3oUtcjX
"Mmmm" I smile looking down at my plate.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAaeA62mIask
"I love that you have that skill, I can't believe I didn't know that" I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAmjRIy4WYTs
"I'm full of surprises. Mum had me take French lessons, something about it opening up your options to know different languages" he smirks.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAuvSuh3URRy
"It sure does open up lots of options" I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAZbTOi4ueU7
Our starters arrive and Jay checks that mine are thoroughly cooked. They taste wonderful of course, I try my best to eat them delicately but the baby hunger takes over.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAnJQGniqL6Z
After we have finished them Jay orders our mains. And we have another drink each.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAqqWY1VwV53
“What other hidden skills do you have” I ask him.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAlhU1auZWgQ
“I think you know them all by now” he chuckles being modest.
78Please respect copyright.PENANATYcOjyShc2
“Oh I’m not sure that I do” I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAm6pmhogzs5
“Okay” he smiles.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAThvjqDb5Zm
“I can do this thing with my tongue” he begins and I smile.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAL73uE7ebg0
“Let’s see” I smile.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAYOD33Bt8BU
“I’ll show you later” he smiles and I blush.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAGCvI44j2B8
“Ohhh I know that trick” I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAsRCfBO3ESb
Our mains arrive saving him from my probing. Truffle pasta is my heaven, but truffle pasta here dining with Jay is even better.
78Please respect copyright.PENANA2AEqb9uFMI
“Steak good?” I ask him.
78Please respect copyright.PENANA69Ssfrk4ms
“Not as good as yours” he winks.
78Please respect copyright.PENANArFZWgHuneQ
“Such a charmer” I smile.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAmVSm6YgxVO
“How’s your pasta” he smiles
78Please respect copyright.PENANALOKLRRbe2Z
“Far better than the truffle pasta I cook” I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAUt9EzI3BvY
“Try it” I say scooping some up for him. I hold my hand under the spoon and feed him.
78Please respect copyright.PENANADXQvi9sMuy
“Mmm” he says after he’s tasted it.
78Please respect copyright.PENANA32kKIIHNjE
“That’s very good” he laughs.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAFgJvuP9I2m
I finish before him and he looks up astounded, usually he would be finished way before me.
78Please respect copyright.PENANATVqpg5qKsc
“Here” he says and he places his fries in front of me. I can’t escape my hunger and I eat.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAUzWZJzcRs1
Once I look up he’s watching me, smile spread across his lips.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAjORELn8SJZ
“Stop it, I’m gonna get fat at this rate” I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAWpngvKyhGB
“No you’re pregnant” he says.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAdG4Dc6A7Le
“I think that’s a myth” I say.
78Please respect copyright.PENANApWeitcMEhg
“Eating for two” I laugh.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAnYm7XNUl7w
“You eat as much as you like” he smiles.
78Please respect copyright.PENANAIiQ0ZhcM9K
“Dessert?” He says and I smile.
